From Small Farmers to Your Table – Fattoria Bini

Fattoria Bini - The Estate and The Story

The Fattoria Bini is located nearby Empoli, in the Chianti area, between Florence and Pisa in the heart of Tuscany, a natural and historical environment. It has been passed from generation to generation, and today it is led by Elena and Francesca Bini Moriani, who continue, year after year, in their meticulous work of restoration and modernization. The historical site of the farm, today family residence, is the Villa Terraio, a five hundred years old villa, with a beautiful Italian style garden. The Villa, located in the Florentine hills, is surrounded by the vineyards and olive groves of the Fattoria Bini and accompanied by Borgo San Giusto, hospitality venue also ideal for meetings, shows, and private receptions. The Villa Terraio is surrounded by a beautiful forest, consisting mainly of tall oak trees, where you can often see rare birds of prey flying undisturbed.

In the mid-nineties, the Bini Family started a significant reforestation intervention. Since then, more than 15,000 trees (including walnuts, oaks, ash trees and cypresses) have been planted over 50 hectares, allowing the regeneration of the original rural environment. Today it is possible to see deer wandering in the woods. The origins and history of the Fattoria Bini are connected to the history of the Grand Dukedom of Tuscany. In the historical period from Pietro Leopoldo to Leopoldo II of Lorraine, 1765-1790, the Bini Family, originally from Livorno, began to focus on agriculture. Mariano, a wine merchant, moved to Empoli in 1789 to buy a small farm and adopt the latest cultivation techniques from Cosimo Ridolfi. The purchase of the Villa Terraio and surrounding farms date back to 1880. The Villa was the residence of the historic Florentine family De’Cerchi in the early sixteenth century.

Only the Best Olives

Harvested with Care by the Family

At the Fattoria Bini all olives are picked by hand or with the help of hand-held olive shakers by groups of hard-working olive pickers. The IGP Toscano is extracted within hours from harvest in local mills at low temperatures to obtain a nutraceutical EVOO rich in antioxidants and health properties. The Fattoria Bini family is committed to producing extra virgin olive oil free from pesticides and harmful chemicals. The IGP Toscano EVOO is the same EVOO they use with their family and friends.
